Funeral For A Friend will release a very special mini album on October 15th through Atlantic Records. Entitled ‘The Great Wide Open‘, it will include the track of the same name from the ‘Tales Don’t Tell Themselves‘ album as well as the video that is currently in rotation but also 8 classic live tracks – the 1st 2 EPs ‘Between Order & Model‘ and ‘Four Ways To Scream Your Name‘ – in full recorded live at the Barfly in London in August this year. These tracks are not available anywhere else and are exclusive to this release.

The mini album will be available at all usual retailers and we will be posting a presale link later this week for advance orders.

Warped Tour 2007 was a hit and I was able to snap some shots of a few bands that I seen. Some of the quality of the pictures are poor, but this was due to the extreme heat and the amazingly aggressive crowd in Detroit, MI. So without further adeu here of some pictures:
